I'm using freebsd 4.1.1 1) on startup the pc stops two times. the first time: standard daemons, the second time when initializing the standard-packages. i have to cancel with ctrl-c. 2) when logging in remotely with telnet it takes 2 minutes until the login prompt finally appears. it cannot be a reverse or dns problem because there is no timeout. it simply takes 2 minutes until the login prompt appears. my commands: telnet 192.168.66.1 (192.168.66.1 is my server's static ip-adress at rl0 (= eth0 in linux) no dns involved. if the ip-adresses belong to the same segment (and they do, the second ip is 192.168.66.10/24) there are only arp calls. thus, it doesnt seem to be an dns problem. 3) similar problem with pppd. it takes 1 minute until a modem-led starts to blink. that means it takes 1 minute to send the command via the serial interface to the modem... no tcp/ip or ethernet involved.. just a handshake. (i need pppd because i want to use connectd. i dont have a permanent connection, the modem is attached to my bsd machine. windows users can dial directly by using a gui which is available for windows. for windows users there is no difference to a "local" modem.) 4) nat doesnt work. no idea why it doesnt... linux is a 1000 times easier. 5) i can mount my primary ext2 partition, but some directories/files are corrupt. some directories are displayed as files?!?! when booting linux no files are corrupt. (ext2fs is enabled in the kernel) 6) samba doesnt work. i am using the config-file that was working in linux, but it doesnt work in bsd. bsd accepts the configuration, but i cant access anything. 7) i cant understand why some programs use /etc, and some use /usr/local/etc, even though they are both daemons for example. is there a rule? thank you for your help thomas To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
